01
Not just hard-drive destruction
AI infrastructure may include GPUs, HBM, NVMe SSDs, BMC storage, SmartNICs or DPUs, CPUs, DRAM and specialized cooling. Each component has a different risk, reuse potential and handling requirement.
AI SERVER RETIREMENT
AI and GPU Server Retirement
Manage data-bearing components, high-value hardware, custody and residual value as separate but connected workstreams.
02
Asset recovery with security controls
GPU residual value can be material, but value recovery should not bypass data identification, ownership confirmation, serial tracking or approved sanitization.
03
Data center coordination
High-density racks, liquid cooling and interdependent systems may require staged shutdown, specialist handling and facility coordination before removal.
